Laptops, over time build up a small amount of dust on the cooling blades of the heat sink. This acts as a blanket and stops it from dispersing heat sufficiently. Simply blowing compressed air into your laptop will not resolve the problem; it can even cause physical damage to the fan. Between the heatsink and CPU & other components its attached to there is a grease like substance - Cooling compound - that can harden and no longer transfer the heat as it should do. We will take your laptop apart clean it and apply new heatsink compound. If it is caught in time this will fix the laptops overheating problem.
